MS Threatens S. Korea [Follow-up]

|
[ED: Groklaw has a great follow up to the story we posted earlier about MS threat against South Korea. PJ brings up same argument that comments on our site has voiced. This is precisely why we should not use their file format and go with Open Document Nationwide] So, if Microsoft withdrew Windows from the Korean market, could Korean citizens in the future access their government documents saved already in Microsoft formats? Extrapolate, please, to Massachusetts. Now do you understand why the government there wants to rely only on open standards and open formats for digital documents? No matter what anyone does, if the documents are open standards/open formats, you are assured that you can always access your legacy data. Your grandchildren will be able to do so, too.
